Benefits of Building Administration Software – The OneTouch Advantage


Building owners and residents are looking for ways to optimize their operations and get a holistic view of activities around the premises, primarily of security. The choice is building management software which helps in monitoring many aspects of building administration.

SmartCloud AI, by OneTouch, is an intuitive building administration software that delivers many benefits and helps in streamlining building management. Let’s look at the benefits of using building administration software and how SmartCloud AI ticks all the boxes.

Overall Picture

A building administration software uses intelligent systems like data and analytics to present the big picture. It helps in gaining access to prioritized data and offers a solution to manage operations of all devices and equipment linked to the software.

SmartCloud AI provides an overview of all video door phones, motion sensors, gas leak sensors etc. installed in the building. Building managers can gain access to any device at any time to respond to issues.

Notifications

Reaching out to numerous residents in a multi-apartment setting is a challenge. This is critical in case of emergencies when the need is for clear information to be passed on in real-time and immediately. Building administration software enables building managers to send push notifications to all users at the click of a button on chosen devices.

In the case of SmartCloud AI, these notifications are not only displayed on video door phone screens but are also delivered as push notifications to designated mobile phones via the OneTouch App. This makes it possible to disseminate information, especially in times of need, faster and much more efficiently. SmartCloud AI can also be used for automated messaging. In certain events like gas leaks, intruders or fire, notifications can be programmed and sent automatically, without any intervention. This can save precious seconds and help in safeguarding lives.

User Management

Residents in buildings may change frequently. This is particularly true for large townships or residential complexes. Building management software enables administrators to update user information in such events. This is important so that all residents are always updated and can receive relevant notifications. Secondly, it helps in removing individuals who should not be receiving information from the loop.

SmartCloud AI is a user-friendly software that allows building managers to easily modify user information or add/delete users. This ensures that the resident lists are always updated and can be used in time of need.

Security Data

Buildings need building management software to store visitor data so that it can be referred to in case of any unforeseen events. Manual methods of record keeping can be inaccurate, tedious to maintain and time-consuming to access. Smart building administration software maintains a digital record of visitors which is easy to access and maintain.

SmartCloud AI can be integrated with visitor management solutions and also stores visitor snapshots. This enhances security and reduces human effort in maintaining visitor data. The software also allows residents to create temporary visitor access codes or keys that can be used by designated visitors to enter the building for a limited time.

Stay Updated

Building administration software can be used to digitally upgrade systems from one touchpoint. It becomes easier to upgrade firmware for all devices connected to the software and saves time and effort for building administrators.

SmartCloud AI automatically checks for firmware updates for all devices and allows users to quickly upgrade their systems. This ensures that the systems are always updated with the latest firmware versions, which ultimately enhances system security.

SmartCloud AI – The right choice

Apart from delivering key benefits as a building management software, SmartCloud AI goes beyond to offer additional features that enhance user experience. Being compatible with OneTouch video door phones and intercom systems, SmartCloud AI helps in quickly setting up and managing the intercom network for the entire property. All residents are connected and the building manager. With built-in SIP, SmartCloud AI enables users to make or receive video calls using the software from their mobile phones. Calls can be received through the video door phone screen or OneTouch mobile app, from anywhere in the world.

SmartCloud AI is equipped with AES 256 Encryption. This means that any communication taking place using the building management software is encrypted using the highest standards of security. These can only be accessed by the designated users and cannot be accessed by external or unauthorized individuals. This is why AES 256 encryption is many times referred to as “Military Grade” encryption.

SmartCloud AI offers the right mix of technology and convenience to make building management more efficient and secure.
